i hold this to be the highest task of a bond between two people: that each
should stand guard over the solitude of the other.
for, if it lies in the nature of indifference and of the crowd to recognize no solitude,
then love and friendship are there for the purpose
of continually providing the opportunity for solitude.
and only those are the true sharings
which rhythmically interrupt periods of deep isolation.
